Above the wilderness, Qixue Palace Master and Beifeng Venerable, these two cosmic overlords, gazed at each other, their eyes filled with shock and solemnity.
“He’s truly formidable,” Beifeng Venerable murmured softly. “This super powerful being from the Starry Sky Huge Beast Alliance possesses a domain-type treasure, a flying-type supreme treasure, and even his life-preserving battle armor should be a high-grade supreme treasure!”
“Right, it must be a high-grade supreme treasure, and it has already been activated into its third form,” Qixue Palace Master said gravely. “If it were merely an ordinary supreme treasure, it wouldn’t have withstood my Qixue Spear so effortlessly.”
They exchanged glances.
Big trouble!
High-grade supreme armor, activated to the third form, combined with that gigantic divine body… these three factors alone were enough to leave other cosmic overlords in despair.
The stronger the supreme powerhouse, the harder they are to kill. Many cosmic overlords are already difficult to eliminate; even if they cannot win, they can still desperately escape… But someone like this, equipped with high-grade supreme armor capable of reducing attacks to one ten-thousandth of their original force, and possessing a divine body of monstrous size—how could he possibly be slain? Unless there exists an overwhelming disparity in power.
For instance, if a Cosmic Sovereign intervenes!
Or some extremely rare special lifeforms among the cosmic overlords!
“We can’t do anything about it,” Beifeng Venerable said softly. “And because of this incident, he’s now on alert beforehand. Our arrangements might no longer work.”
“What do we do then?” Qixue Palace Master asked gravely.
“First, we must never admit to having battled this Jiaoju Beast. Since no other powerful witnesses were present, as long as we remain silent, no one will ever know. Second, we must now comply fully with the Alliance’s directives. Our Northern Border Alliance’s Cosmic Sovereign has already orchestrated a comprehensive plan. Near the vortex exit, adjacent to the channels closest to where the Sword River Luo Divine Sword is destined to manifest, traps have already been laid. When the Fumo Overlord arrives in person, he will ensure the Jiaoju Beast has no chance of escape.”
Qixue Palace Master nodded in agreement.
The Northern Border Alliance was one of the nine most powerful forces in the cosmos. When setting up a trap, who could possibly escape?
…
In a vast ancient forest on a primordial star, the Jiaoju Beast lay in hiding, its eyes showing a hint of worry.
“What should I do?”
“My original plan is no longer viable.”
Previously, when Luo Feng learned about the Sword River Luo Divine Sword in the virtual universe, he immediately decided to flee, choosing as his escape route a vortex channel leading to the outside world!
According to Luo Feng’s original plan:
First, he would fly toward the vortex channel… and when nearing it, the Jiaoju Beast and his Mosha Clan clone and Youhai clone would temporarily separate. The Jiaoju Beast would hand over all supreme treasures and treasures, while the Mosha Clan clone, carrying the Youhai clone, would transform into soil and hide temporarily.
Then, the Jiaoju Beast would attempt to pass through the vortex channel first!
If successful, then the Mosha Clan clone would emerge.
If he failed and fell into a desperate situation, unable to escape, the Jiaoju Beast would self-destruct! At the same time, Luo Feng’s Earthman self outside would immediately seek help from his ‘Master Hunchun City Lord’ through the virtual universe!
Needless to say—
That vortex channel was the closest one to human territory, and after Hunchun City Lord arrived, he could easily use his immense power to forcibly ‘capture’ Luo Feng on the surface, thereby actually rescuing him.
…
This plan, although simple, was straightforward and effective.
However, after the recent battle with Qixue Palace Master and Beifeng Venerable, Luo Feng immediately changed his plan.
“They both flew here to find me, which clearly shows that the Northern Border Alliance acted very quickly. Probably, when the Sword River Luo Divine Sword appeared, the Northern Border Alliance’s Cosmic Sovereigns already recognized the black sword body,” Luo Feng thought to himself. From the battle with Qixue Palace Master and Beifeng Venerable, he could deduce—
The Northern Border Alliance had started their preparations early!
It was likely that the Northern Border Alliance’s Cosmic Sovereign was already on the way, possibly arriving even earlier than Hunchun City Lord.
“If I now rush to the vortex channel, it will certainly lead to a deadly ambush.”
“Trying to push through blindly would be nothing but self-inflicted suffering.”
“What should I do then?”
“Head to the nearest alternative vortex channel?” Luo Feng pondered. A primordial star had 10,081 vortex channels, each generally hundreds of millions of kilometers apart. Traveling from one vortex channel to another usually took about half an hour.
The nearest vortex channel to him now was about a 15-minute flight away.
“If the Northern Border Alliance has laid careful traps, then the few vortex channels closest to where the Sword River Luo Divine Sword appeared would already be set up,” Luo Feng shook his head inwardly. “Rushing there would be walking straight into their trap. And the probability of that is very high.”
Going to the vortex channel leading to the outside world! Dangerous!
Going to nearby vortex channels! Also dangerous!
And heading to more distant vortex channels, the problem was that during the flight, the Northern Border Alliance’s Cosmic Sovereign might arrive, controlling the space-time of the region, and even from afar, completely suppress and attack him directly.
“Relying on the Mosha Clan’s transformation techniques and innate secret methods of replication?” Luo Feng shook his head inwardly. The Mosha Clan was merely one of countless ordinary races in the cosmos, and their innate secret method ‘Replication’ was only a relatively low-level innate ability, albeit somewhat unique and peculiar. It wasn’t something that couldn’t be countered.
The Northern Border Alliance was one of the nine supreme powers in the cosmos. Once they set up a trap…
Luo Feng’s chances of escaping were slim, very slim!
“I can only seek help from my master,” Luo Feng thought.
…
At the peak of Thunder Island in the virtual universe, within the palace of Hunchun City Lord, surrounded by endless currents of energy.
Luo Feng stepped across the threshold of the grand hall, entered inside, and walked deep into the hall before stopping respectfully and calling out, “Master!”
A golden-robed figure stepped forward.
“Luofeng,” Hunchun City Lord looked at Luo Feng with a smile. “You should be on a primordial star right now. What brings you here?”
“Disciple has urgent matters to report,” Luo Feng said without hesitation. “Disciple came to the primordial star using the Jiaoju Beast clone along with the Mosha Clan clone.”
Hunchun City Lord nodded silently, naturally aware of this since Luo Feng’s Earthman self was currently in the Thousand Treasure River Domain.
“On the primordial star, by chance, I obtained a component of the Sword River Luo,” Luo Feng said.
“Oh, it was you?” Hunchun City Lord was surprised and laughed heartily. “I just received intelligence saying that two Starry Sky Huge Beasts from the Starry Sky Huge Beast Alliance obtained a component of the Sword River Luo… I was thinking, if this component ended up in the hands of our human race, it would be an important bargaining chip in negotiations with the Thorn Ring Alliance.”
Luo Feng quickly said, “However, disciple is now in great trouble. The Northern Border Alliance has also learned of this matter and has already begun setting traps to deal with disciple.”
“Explain in detail,” Hunchun City Lord frowned.
“Yes.”
Luo Feng immediately began explaining in detail, mentioning Qixue Palace Master and Beifeng Venerable.
“You didn’t suffer any losses in their hands?” Hunchun City Lord looked at Luo Feng in surprise. Qixue Palace Master and Beifeng Venerable were absolutely well-known cosmic overlords… representing the typical combat strength of a cosmic overlord! For Luo Feng to withstand these two, Hunchun City Lord couldn’t help but feel shocked.
Almost instantly… Hunchun City Lord deduced that his disciple Luo Feng must possess a supreme defensive treasure, and likely even a high-grade supreme treasure! Such as a high-grade supreme armor!
Although he deduced this, Hunchun City Lord did not ask further…
Because his disciple Luo Feng had always had many secrets—for example, at the immortal stage, why was his divine body so powerful? Stronger than many cosmic venerables?
Needless to say, Hunchun City Lord had personally witnessed the incredible commotion caused by Luo Feng’s breakthrough to immortality and the descent of the Origin Laws! Moreover, in the Thousand Treasure River Domain, the strength of his divine power was so formidable… with Hunchun City Lord’s control over space-time, he could completely judge that Luo Feng’s divine body was stronger than some cosmic venerables.
Everything, Hunchun City Lord did not ask further.
“Perhaps my disciple has obtained some opportunities.”
“Perhaps the opportunity of a great being.”
“Perhaps from before the Great Annihilation Era…” Hunchun City Lord was very pleased with this situation. Regardless of what special experiences his disciple had, the stronger his disciple was, the better.
The stronger Luo Feng was, the more he represented that the human race was about to have a new, pillar-like super existence.
“My combat strength is still inferior to Qixue Palace Master and others. I merely withstood their attacks due to the sheer size of my divine body,” Luo Feng continued.
“Having a large divine body is also part of one’s strength,” Hunchun City Lord replied.
Luo Feng then urgently said, “Master, I believe you now understand the current situation. The strong ones from the Northern Border Alliance have come directly to hunt me down, clearly having initiated their plans early. Now, what should I do? It seems dangerous no matter which vortex channel I choose. Please guide me, Master.”
“You were wise not to act recklessly,” Hunchun City Lord smiled. “With your current abilities alone, you would certainly be captured and killed.”
“The Northern Border Alliance is formidable enough to rival our Hong Alliance, and in terms of the number of powerhouses and races, they far surpass us,” sighed the Lord of Hunchun City. “They possess various unique lifeforms, as well as numerous bloodline-strong races with innate secret techniques, which are both vast in number and highly sophisticated. Their innate secret techniques are exceptionally ingenious.”
“They’re after you? It’s practically impossible to guard against.”
“Your innate secret technique ‘Replication’ is indeed a remarkable concealment method. Under normal circumstances, one would have to become a Cosmic Sovereign and fully control a space-time domain to detect any anomalies,” Hunchun City Lord explained.
Luo Feng nodded.
Once one controls a space-time domain, it is indeed extremely formidable. For example, his innate secret technique ‘Domain’ would be easily cracked, and even ‘Replication’ could be easily detected. As for the innate secret technique ‘Enhancement,’ in reality, the divine body’s amplification is at most 100 times, so it becomes practically useless in later stages.
Therefore, many innate secret techniques are effective when one’s power is weak.
However, at the Cosmic Sovereign level… very few innate secret techniques remain effective. However, Luo Feng’s genetic level had reached the perfect limit, and his soul consciousness had entered a mysterious cosmic realm and was granted the innate secret technique ‘I Am the Universe,’ which was practically one of the most supreme innate secret techniques.
“Innate secret techniques can also be countered by other innate secret techniques,” said the Lord of Hunchun City. “There are various innate secret techniques in the universe, and due to some special experiences, it’s quite normal for the cosmos to bestow innate secret techniques.”
“The levels of innate secret techniques vary, as do their powers and purposes.”
“They counter each other.”
“They resemble each other.”
“But these innate secret techniques become increasingly useless as one progresses,” Hunchun City Lord smiled. “For example, the innate secret technique of King Weijing was originally a soul attack method, but a Cosmic Sovereign’s casual soul attack would likely be far more refined than that innate secret technique.”
Luo Feng obediently nodded.
“And now the Northern Border Alliance has laid a trap for you. Do you really think you can sneak out using various secret techniques and slip through unnoticed? That’s impossible!” Hunchun City Lord shook his head. “You’re underestimating the capabilities of a superpower far too much.”
“What should I do then?” Luo Feng asked.
“Don’t worry. Your master naturally has a solution,” Hunchun City Lord smiled.
